[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is a recruited athlete and all the kids I know that got into Ivy schools are recruited athletes.[/quote] [b]There is a big difference between a legacy and a recruited athlete.[/b] The former is something you are by way of birth, but the latter requires a lot of dedication and persistence. (None of my children are recruited athletes, but in my opinion, recruited athletes should get preferential treatment, as it takes a lot of grit to be an elite athlete.)[/quote] And some families are doubly blessed. Look at the Boss family at Dartmouth and the Buonanos at Princeton.[/quote] This is such a weird comment to post in a public forum. I googled these names and schools, and these are random kids that aren’t public figures.[/quote]
